“…In vitro, NK cells exert cytotoxicity against a number of hematologic malignancies, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML), 26-28 ALL, 29-33 multiple myeloma (MM), [34][35][36][37] as well as many solid tumors including neuroblastoma, ovarian, colon, renal cell, and gastric carcinomas. 33,[38][39][40][41][42] However, many tumors develop evasion strategies to circumvent killing by autologous NK cells. 27,31 For example, some leukemia and lymphoma cells maintain high surface expression of HLA molecules, making them invisible to NK attack, 31,32 or may lack ligands that signal through activating NK cell receptors.…”
